Learnt a lot about the local area from Marcel, and definitely visited places we wouldn’t have found on our own. Nice group of British and Australians. We did spend quite a long time waiting in the cold for people to buy drinks and go to the bathroom constantly- hard to know if this is avoidable. Also a little pricey, but generally would recommend this tour.

We joined the Midnight Diner Tour with Alejandro this December. We had a great time. Alejandro is clearly loved by local business owners and staff—he showed some great hidden gems.

Joshua was our guide for our evening food tour in the Tenma Station area of Osaka. He was quite knowledgeable about the cultural history of Osaka. He led the group to a unique “tunnel slide” which was really fun. After he told us how pachinko parlors work we were able to walk through one . . . a first for us! The actual food was mainly “bar food.” That is, skewers and small plates of various local delicacies, with plenty of beer of course. I guess a slight criticism would be that there was not that much variety in the places we visited. They were all good though! At the last stop Joshua found us a taxi and offered his help if we needed any further assistance during our stay. As an older couple this was very much appreciated!

Hugo was an amazing guide! He made substantial efforts to learn about my taste in food and drink, and took me to places where we were the only foreigners. I even got to try three types of meat that aren't available in the US! He has a deep knowledge of Japan, and is great to have a conversation with. 10/10 would recommend to others.

Bruce and Ling were great, knowledgeable guides! We booked the izakaya and ramen tour and they showed us some great hidden spots we never would have thought to visit, and the food was excellent. Recommend booking a tour at the start of your stay in Fukuoka so they can provide other recommendations for restaurants and sites to visit.
